I bought mine 6 years ago & paid £3,000 for it, which I have never regretted for one minute, as they are beautiful instruments.
You can check out the sound of my Maple one here:...
Check out this cracking video that Jamie Dougan just uploaded, of Angelina Carberry & Martin Quinn playing Fletcher Tenortone Tenor Guitars!
Angelina was apparently trying to decide between a...

Here's our first stab at a Tenor Guitar / Harp duet.
I think they sound quite nice together.

Sorry, but I'm not a Guitar player, just a...
Because this Fletcher Tenortone Tenor Guitar only arrived yesterday evening, of course I just had to post a tune to show Jamie Dougan, it's maker, that it did indeed cross the Atlantic safely! :-)

Yeeee Haaaaw! .... It's here! :)
Yes folks, Xmas has arrived early this year! :grin:
My Tenortone arrived late afternoon, yesterday!
It sounds amazing & looks absolutely gorgeous too! :cool:...
Interesting Michael.
Sounds like my Fletcher, with it's X Bracing, is going to be just right for me then, given that I'm a rounded & refined sot of a guy! :grin:

Well, I have my Tenortone's UPS Tracking Number now, so it's only a matter of time! :grin:
Excellent stuff, thanks Dagger & Jim. :cool:
Makes me wonder if there are any more out there! ;)
Cheers
Dick
Just learned that my Cheque cleared today! :grin:
So who knows, with any luck, my Tenortone may even be getting itself strapped to the back of one of those UPS Transatlantic Homing Pigeons as you...
Only spotted this, thanks to a link on thesession today!

Jill, after reading comments like these ones below, I thought I'd go for the X Bracing.

Well folks, fingers crossed my Fletcher Tenortone should be starting it's Atlantic crossing, sometime tomorrow! :grin:
Jamie actually finished two at the same time recently & I found out just the...
Aye, but we should try not to hold that against him!
After all, he clearly isn't ALL bad! :)) :))
Does time ever go any slower than when you have sent off your cash & now all you can do is WAIT, for your Cheque to clear, for your New Instrument to travel across the Atlantic, for it to travel...
Aye sorry, what I meant really was studio &/or on stage through a PA.
It's just that I can't imagine fingerstyle being very practical in a session situation, that's all.
As for Tony, yes I...
Yes indeed, I remember that LP well. In fact I still have my copy .......... somewhere!
There's a track list here:
Alba (Rubber Records RUB 021, 1977)
Aye, there's some lovely stuff on that...
A search here didn't show up this Mandolin CD, so just in case any folks here haven't heard about this one yet, here's the link to CD Baby:

Have you ever tried to play Fingerstyle Mandolin? :disbelief:

You first see him around 00.38.

Kevin MacLeod & Alec Finn!
Fans of these two fine musicians, need to check out a bunch of videos, which have just been posted on YouTube this week!

Luckily for me, I live in Ireland, so one thing I certainly don't need .. is a humidifier! ;)
Good to know you are so pleased with both cases though.
I know I'll find good uses for both of them....
John, isn't that the Martin case that I already gave a link to, above?
i.e.: Martin Mini Guitar Case

Of course, the best advice would be to avoid those huge sessions, full of musicians trying to play louder than each other, then you can play what you want! :whistling:
Of course, I know, back in...
Ok here's my take on the Irish version of The Cuckoo's Nest.
